Horned 4-pane sash windows to 1st and 2nd floors, the left hand openings have been blocked and one now contained a PH sign.

The main entrance to left has double half glazed doors and lettered fanlight; the right hand porch has round arched headed entrance with half glazed door. At extreme left end is a further round arched opening with recessed double panelled doors. This formerly led into a shop which was separate from the Inn.
